Five Crowns, a family-owned third-generation grower, packer, shipper and processor of fresh produce, announces the opening of its new facility in Tracy, CA with partner GloriAnn Farms. The new facility will expand the value-added corn program and offer regional distribution of other core products.
Scheduled to open in April 2021, GloriAnn Farm’s new state-of-the-art processing facility will more than double capacity to produce their value-added line of products. It also provides much greater flexibility to manage unforeseen issues that may arise.
“If 2020 taught us anything, it’s to expect the unexpected,” said Mark Bacchetti, co-owner of GloriAnn Farms. “Last year we faced numerous obstacles that hindered our ability to keep up with significantly increased demand for packaged corn. Needless to say, we will be ready with this new facility and look forward to continuing to grow the value-added sweet corn category with our retail partners.”
